A hidden French bistro with some of the best steak in Nicosia
Brasserie Au Bon Plaisir
An authentic, family-run French brasserie in a quiet side street off the old town, known for steaks and classic bistro dishes.
Brasserie Au Bon Plaisir is a small, family-run French bistro near the busy Oxi roundabout in Nicosia, set back on a quiet side street with retro decor that feels frozen in a pleasant past. Reviewers single out the steak in particular, alongside more traditional French dishes such as duck confit and homemade sauces, with occasional menu items like snails or foie gras for those wanting something more adventurous.
The Cyprus Mail has reviewed it directly, and online reviews are consistently strong, praising the unpretentious, welcoming service as much as the food. Expect to pay a genuine fine-dining price per person, reported by reviewers in the €45 to €50 range, in exchange for a rare, well-executed French dining experience in the city.
